I hate that guy.

A lot.
I remember the discussion early in his first term about "flooding the zone with shit", and how that (I believe Bannon's) strategy meant overwhelming people's ability to pay attention and stay engaged to the point they could say or do anything and people would remain zoned out. It's mostly worked.

I legitimately think one of the absolute poisons of American political discourse is how “but will this matter electorally” has become the only metric used by basically the entire non-partisan media for assessing a story’s importance

again i am perfectly fine with locking every one of Jeffrey Epstein's friends in prison, Democrat, Republican or Whatever.
Lest there be any insinuation that Dems spared their own. It would be tough for Kathy Ruemmler—Obama’s WH Counsel from 2011 to mid-2014—to come off looking worse in these docs the committee Dems released. oversightdemocrats.house.gov/sites/evo-su...

Putting aside all the horrible shit in them: I cannot believe the global elite composes emails like fucking horses who somehow learned to crudely type. My emails read like Shakespeare compared to the lowercased, unpunctuated screeds written to the worlds biggest pedophile. Fucking write like adults!

Got turned down on a piece about ICE in Chicago for an international news org because they believed I couldn’t be objective about my neighbors getting kidnapped. And well, guilty as charged I guess.

Kanye blaming his Nazi support on bipolar disorder is basically like when Kevin Spacey tried to change the narrative about the pedophilia rumours by coming out as gay.

You're not helping your case, you're just dragging other bipolar/gay people down with you.

I feel like this point is weirdly under-discussed in the discourse! Acosta himself approved Epstein's notorious sweetheart non-prosecution agreement. By elevating Acosta to the cabinet later, Trump seemed to ... pretty clearly reward that?
trump made the prosecutor who gave epstein a pass the secretary of labor!

More proof that Sean Duffy lied when he said Trump was canceling private flights at the same rate as commercial ones.

A new report shows that private jet travel saw massive increases as thousands of commercial flights were being canceled.

Here's what I mean when I say it's very clear Ghislaine lied.

A few weeks after Blanche's chummy interview, in which Ghislaine (among other things) denied there were cameras at Epstein's brownstone, this unsourced NYT article that did not mention Blanche posted pics making it clear there were.

He mentions Epstein twice in this post. Lmao. It's like that scene from Fawlty Towers when he keeps saying DON'T MENTION THE WAR and ends up goose stepping around the lobby
Did not take Trump long to try to rectify that briefing via Truth Social

"This is all no big deal and the president is currently strategizing his response with his aides in the White House Situation Room. No big deal at all."
Q: "Why are White House officials…meeting with Rep. Boebert in an effort to try to get her to not sign this petition calling for the release of the [Epstein] files?"

Leavitt: "I'm not going to detail conversations that took place in the situation room."

“The pattern is one that involved modeling agencies around the world serving as fronts for human trafficking…This may very well be what Trump is trying desperately to keep quiet in the DOJ’s Epstein files.”
